Default What is the toughest rookie card of the 1960s?

The hardest one to get.. or the most expensive?

1963 Topps Rose
1967 Topps Seaver
1968 Topps Ryan
1969 Topps Jackson

Or is there one I missed?

They're all easily found.

Assuming each card has the same grade and qualities, the Rose card likely is the most expensive followed by Ryan, Seaver and Jackson.

Johnny Bench might be the best value though.

1962 Uecker
1966 Grant Jackson

No 1960's card is impossible -- just sometimes hard to find at reasonable prices

Bob Gibson is tough to find centered. If you look OUTSIDE of baseball, the Wilt Chamberlain rookie is a beast.

And don't forget...the Joe Namath rookie in football is my bet for the most expensive one of them all.

Stargell looks pretty expensive, at least the signed ones

Being a Dodger collector, I still have not added Ken McMullen or Bart Shirley rookies!

I have to agree with Seaver. In addition to being a tough '67 High #, he's a HOFer and a Met/Red, which most certainly increase the demand for the card and making it harder to locate.

Default I truly believe its seaver.

There was a time i owned a 100 Jackson/Shirley rookies, i think it was actually 93 but i haven't owned that many seavers in my life and i have been buying and selling since 1979.

Default 60's Rookies

Recently sold one of each of those rookies and did quite well. Sharp, strong-centered Jackson rookies do very, very well.

The Ryan rookie is very common. Reggie's Rookie is also fairly easy.
Rose is harder to find and it is a high number, but '63 highs are not nearly as rare as other years. The Grant Jackson rookie is kind of an artificial market. Its a 66 high, which makes it hard, but I don't think its anymore rare than Choo-Choo Coleman.
Seaver's rookie is pretty difficult to find and you can't really find a beat up version of it for anywhere less than $200. It may be the hardest to find. The funny thing is, you can find a poor conditioned one selling for $200 and you can find an ExMt version selling for $550. There pretty much isn't as wide of a price range on it, due to the fact that the lower conditioned ones are more expensive.

Some of the 1962 High number rookies like Joe Pepitone and Uecker are pretty difficult to find and much harder to find in really nice condition.
